[Taken from the first section.] Welcome to Yeld! This is a game about exploration and discovery, about normal children from our own world who find a secret, hidden door to a magical land. This book offers a set of introductory rules that let you take your first steps through the door to Yeld. You’ll learn how to play the game, use the Adventure Map, fight monsters, find, use and sell weapons and items, protect yourself from magic and (most importantly) work together with your friends to complete the adventure! Hunting Mermaids with your friends and exploring the lakes and waterfalls isn’t too difficult, but each visit to Yeld will become more and more dangerous, and one day you’ll step through the door and find that it locks behind you, trapping you in the magical land! This book is just a preview of The Magical Land of Yeld (Playtest Edition 2.0) role playing game, coming latter in 2012, and your adventures exploring Yeld, outwitting it’s evil Prince and finding a way to return home will unfold with that book. For now, enjoy bashing some mermaid heads!
